I knew coming into this almost 2 years ago that this wouldn't last forever. And it saddens me that i'm already starting to feel myself being pulled in another direction. I love wizard rock. I love the people involved in wizard rock. Whether it be other bands, fans, families, friends, ect...


In the past 2 years I have been lucky to travel the united states, play shows with some of the greatest people in the world, meet some of the most amazing humans the universe could possibly ever know, and have even managed to find myself falling in love with everyone, (and no, not just in a romantic way, though that does apply as well...)

The past year alone, I gave my heart and soul to this movement. I tried to be everywhere, be available to anyone who wanted to talk to me ever, and generally just be in peoples faces, haha. I even lost my old job because of Wizard Rock, (although you will never hear me complain about that, it was probably the best thing to ever happen to me.) Because of my termination, i was able to travel almost nonstop from last september until this september. I was able to work on music constantly and really grow as a musician.

But i find myself at a crossroad again... and the past week, through talking with friends, and tons and tons of thinking and pondering, meditation and prayer, I have found what i believe i should do next....

The past few months have been hectic. Trying to balance relationships with a new job and with music and this part of my life hasn't been easy. I find myself at the end of the day wishing for more time. I'm sure a many of us do.

Things here on the homefront haven't been the easiest, it seems like something is constantly happening to cause strife between us all. This new job, as amazing and rewarding as it is, has its obvious drawbacks. I mean, did any of you who really know me ever see me ending up behind a desk in my own office working full time and making almost what i made last year alone in 3 months?

I sure didn't. However, I am enjoying myself, I get to do something i enjoy (aside from music and cartoons haha.) But because of that, Catchlove is suffering. I just finished It's Still Snowing... The goal i set for me back in August was October 17th. Here it is a month later and i just finished, and havent even uploaded it yet. So much for iTunes, eh?

I hate that Catchlove is suffering. It breaks my heart. This silly project that I expected nothing from, is the one thing that has managed to really make me grow up and realize who I am as a person. And it's dying.

So, whats a loving creator supposed to do? I read Ol' Yeller. I refuse to take this out into a field and finish it off with one single shot to the head. I also read comic books and science fiction. Therefore, for those of you who are nerdy, Catchlove is going into suspended animation until i can bring it back to life fully.

I'm still going to carry out the plans i already have. The OkC Yule Ball. It's Still Snowing, and Wrockstock 09. But since I have nothing else between January till November, it only seems right Catchlove take a Hiatus until I can come back with 100%, like i did 2 years ago.

After feb 1st, you probably wont see me around much as I jump back into my normal life, but dont fear. I'll be around.

So... the road hasn't been easy, if it had been, this probably wouldnt have been as fun or amazing as it has been. But, in the words of Robert Frost, words we all know;

"I took the [road] less traveled by,
and that has made all of the difference."





I didnt have to do this.
I could have let it go after a month or two


but i didnt


and I am forever grateful for everyone who stood by me during this.


and to be even more nerdy;



I never expected to find (any of) you here
But I did
I found love (and family, and friends) in wizard rock.




I love you.
